Andrey Veslivy built the Combrig 1:700 scale kit of the
Imperial Russian battleship, Tsarevitch,
as she appeared in 1904 as part of the Russian Pacific Squadron, subsequently
known as the First Pacific Squadron. The Tsarevitch
was built in France and exhibited the extreme tumblehome of contemporary French
designs. The ship served as the general basis for the Russian built Borodino
class. The Tsarevitch was the only
Russian battleship of the 1st Pacific squadron to escape destruction, as she
broke out of the trap at Port Arthur at the conclusion of the Battle of the
Yellow Sea and was interned in the German port of Tsingtao.
